2020 NFL Draft Gameday Thread

Baun fits nicely in NO

 

[JO_75]

Lions have traded up with the Colts.

 

[29BmoreBird22]

In case anyone is curious about the Dobbins pick, Dolphins fans are VERY convinced the Dolphins would have taken Dobbins a pick after the Ravens.

 

[Italian Raven]

Please at least Lewis or Garvin.. Please..
And NO Weaver.. NO Baun

 

[rossihunter2]

So he is a pass rusher, a run stuffer with pass rushing qualities, or is he going to be a 3 down Dlinemen.

Unrelated that is a sick move.

i think he's got the upside to be a 3 down lineman - his quickness though makes him a problem as a pass rusher straight away

Madubuike has me excited again. I’m liking the draft so far actually.

dobbins has me mildly excited, hate the pick but I think we’re gonna forget all about value and analytics come late season and we see what he does here...

And madubuike holy shit what a steal, wasn’t surprised and he wasn’t my top option left but definitely up there, I’m cool as shit with that pick

dude my mood has completely flipped

 

[JO_75]

Lions take Jonah Jackson.

 

[rossihunter2]

Please at least Lewis or Garvin.. Please..
And NO Weaver.. NO Baun

absolutely dont want Weaver either

 

[BloodRaven]

I dont rate Baun personally, I would rather play Madbuike on the edge.

 

[Adreme]

I wonder if the Ravens stick with their other 3 3rd round picks or if there is anyone worth moving up to grab.

Its still relatively "early" in the draft, but I'm getting the sense that the FO is like "look, we're not going to be able to upgrade the pass rush that much this year". And it makes sense... this is a notoriously bad year for edge rushers. The draft is lacking, and there wasn't much on the FA market.

What it seems to me is that the FO has decided:
a) we're not going to get bullied in the run game anymore. They're beefing up and redoing the Dline, and they're making sure that won't be a weakness this year.
b) they've just decided that they're going to blitz a lot with various groupings and looks, and allow the leagues best secondary to do what it does best.

Probably the worst news for us fans, because I think the consensus was adding to the pass rush was a key priority this offseason. But it's starting to smell like that's just not going to happen.

I’m actually ok with it. I’m cooler with pff than most here, and I love their take on this defense, keep the secondary absolutely elite as fuck, send 5 on every snap and make it complex so they struggle to account for the fifth/sixth man.

as long as we have the horses to do that, I like it. Queen and Clark as our nickel set let’s us do that so freaking well, and madubuike is really a true 3 down DT who should never come off the field

 

[allblackraven]

Baun gone. Phew.

 

[Ravensnation5220]

Gotta say. I love seeing all the managers with their kids. That must be such a cool experience for the kids

 

[UPennChem]

Lions having a great draft

 

[rossihunter2]

Lions take Jonah Jackson.

steady player but nothing particularly special about him - he's got a bit of nasty about him but he's athletically limited - got a chance to be a starter but i dont think he's got much upside

 

[rossihunter2]

yeah im so jealous of the kids lol

I guess Goodell got tired of standing

He said on Twitter or got quoted on Twitter as saying he would sit. He used to think all the big hugs and hits from prospects was the issue, but clearly that wasn't all it was.

Just trying to be more personable. I don't get why people hate him as a person. He seems like he really tries and is okay with self deprecation.

 

[Grim]

We absolutely cannot resist the 3rd round DL though

It’s about as sure as taxes.

Greenard
Baun
Edwards

I was never a big Baun fan for us but I think he’s in a good spot in NO. I like Greenard and Edwards though.

I've grown to appreciate him so much more after these last 2 nights. He's lame af but he tries and I appreciate that.
